Claus Kim Høgdall

Claus Kim Høgdall serves as a Professor in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at the University of Copenhagen's Department of Clinical Medicine, with his primary affiliation at Blegdamsvej 3, Copenhagen. His research focuses on gynaecological malignancies with particular emphasis on ovarian and cervical cancer pathogenesis, diagnostics, and clinical management.

His research portfolio spans molecular diagnostics, cancer genetics, and geriatric oncology, with significant contributions to biomarker discovery through extracellular vesicle analysis and DNA methylation profiling. Recent work explores genetic risk factors for residual disease post-debulking surgery and develops diagnostic signatures to differentiate malignant from benign ovarian tumors.

Analysis of his 2024-2025 publications reveals a concentrated focus on ovarian cancer genomics, with 7 of 8 recent articles addressing molecular mechanisms, biomarker validation, and clinical applications. His work demonstrates strong international collaboration through consortia like OCAC and AOCS, particularly in multi-omics approaches to cancer risk assessment and geriatric intervention protocols.
